A2 ANARCHIST GROUP : Revolutionary Praxis is the Enemy of Revolutionary Ideology and Knows It- Ann Arbor: A2 Anarchist Group, [ca. 1974]. Original flyer. 8 1/2 x 11 inch photomontage in red and blue on pale green stock offset, typescript on verso. Near fine. Very rare in both commerce and institutions with no copies in OCLC. A copy in IISH, part of the Steef Davidson collection of posters illustrated on their website. A2 describe this as "The first leaflet done on our press; the second pro-situ leaflet we published." A collage of the marques of various radical newspapers such as Workers Power, Yipster is accompanied by a photograph of Stalins broken statue head from the Budapest insurrection in 1956. In turn, Debords Thesis 124, from Society of The Spectacle is below in red with the substitution of theory for praxis. The bottom right corner has two appropriated vignettes of Dr. Seusss archetypal pranksters Thing 1 and 2 with an incomprehensible equation below. The typed note adds that "This is the first copy. Nick [Totton], ever sent to the U.K. that I know about-for whatever thats worth!"
